RARE TAPESTRY OF THE ROYAL MANUFACTURE OF 
FELLETIN FRENCH, LATE 17TH CENTURY 
ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND THE WIVES oF Darius, AFTER 
Cuarues Lesrun 

Charles Lebrun, the celebrated director of the manufacture 
of the Gobelins, made among others a series of cartoons 
depicting the story of Alexander the Great. The cartoons are 
now in the Louvre Museum in Paris; the tapestries were exe- 
cuted by the manufacturer of the Gobelins. This famous series 
was frequently copied. A Flemish copy exists at the Metro- 
politan Museum. The present tapestry is of a series executed 
by the Royal manufacture of Felletin. Felletin and Lamarche -

are small tapestry-weaving establishments which never gained 
the reputation of Gobelins and Beauvais in spite of royal en- 
couragement. ‘The present tapestry represents Alexander the 
Great entering the tent of the women of Darius after the battle 
of Issus. It has vivid and bright colors and transposes the 
classic pomp of Lebrun into a language of provincial naiveté not 
without charm. The tapestry is signed on the lower border, 
M. R. De Feletin, J. D., a very unusual occurrence.
